??Epiphone 50th anniversary lp??


kid.on.earth

Recommended Posts

Guys,

 

This seems to be a genuine Epiphone.

 

Living in Canada, I recognized the logo of Long & McQuade, the largest Canadian music retailer:

After a little research, here's the link to their 50th anniversary flyer, advertising both black and Antique Cherry version (CAN$695)

They had lots of "special editions" done just for them that year (PRS, Ovation, Godin, etc.)

 

 

Cheers,

George

paruwi6172 is correct.

 

Ok guys, follow me here: It is NOT a Les Paul CUSTOM -- It's a CUSTOM Les paul.

 

More along the lines of a Prophecy Les Paul build.

 

A Les Paul CUSTOM is MUCH different than this guitar. (Headstock inlay, fret inlay,maple bookmatached top, special burst colors, etc...)

 

This guitar was a limited run that Epiphone does for retailers. They have different ones for Sam Ash, Guitar Center ,Musicians Friend, ETC......

 

You see them advertised all the time.
